Hey Frag, glad to be working with you. Congrats on passing the interview, now let's get to work. First off, if you ever have any questions about an assignment or anything, please ask me as I'm happy to answer them so don't feel uncomfortable asking. Unfortunately, I am away this weekend with my family and will not have much access to the wiki or the IRC, so there's no assignment for now, but I'll have one for you when I return on Sunday evening. In the meantime, keep editing around the wiki and everything. Also, I updated your userpage with the appropriate Apprentice templates and userboxes so feel free to move those around as you like. --NOSTALGIA TALK 14:04, March 22, 2013 (UTC) |
Assignment 1: Paul Revere revamp |
---|
Details[]For your first assignment, I would like you to revamp Paul Revere. From what I saw on a quick read-through, the article needs:
Please use that list as a guide, not as a prompt; if there are things not mentioned that need fixing, then fix them. If you are having trouble, leave me a message here detailing your issue, or send me a message on the IRC. Otherwise, post here with a summary of the work you've done once you're finished. Some helpful links are The Midnight Ride (memory) for info and images, and Israel Putnam for help with spacing, quotes, and extent of info. Good luck, Apprentice. --NOSTALGIA TALK 23:26, March 24, 2013 (UTC) Summary[]I completed all of the suggested bullets (using them as a prompt) and I also expanded information. I had a little bit of trouble finding quotes for Revere, due to his brief appearance in AC...so I took most from the Midnight Ride. I added a legacy section, a trivia, and expanded the gallery. I believe I have completed the revamp, and I have now nothing more to add to the article without being repetitive. (I think I did this wrong lol) --User:The Forgotten Fragment Comments[]Nah, your summary was fine. Here are my lessons after reading the article:

Assignment 2: Addition and subtraction | ||
---|---|---|
Now that you've learned the basics of a revamp, we're going to turn to the topic of extent of information, as I like to call it. This assignment has 2 parts, both of which are detailed below, and the basic idea is for you to develop an understanding of how much info a page needs, how much info is too much, and how much info is too little. Keep my previous comments in mind and make sure to proofread to get rid of grammar, spelling, and punctuation mistakes. Leave a message in the comments section if you're having trouble, or contact me on the IRC. Otherwise, post summaries in each summary section once you're done. Note that there is no order or time limit to these assignments, so feel free to do them as you choose. Good luck. --NOSTALGIA TALK 23:10, March 30, 2013 (UTC)
Part I: Edward Braddock[]Details[]For the first part, I want you to go to Edward Braddock. You'll notice the article goes into extreme detail in the biography subsections, which is not needed. Therefore, I want you to cut the sections down so they are more concise and to the point. This will entail removing some information and rewording other bits to be concise. Add some spacing and cut the information down so it doesn't go into unnecessary detail. Check out Israel Putnam if you're unsure about how in-depth the info needs to be. Summary[]Welp, I attempted to cut down on useless information while still keeping the original form. I also got rid of extra information that really wasn't very relevant, and more or less repeated what other passages had already stated. I did change up the language a bit, but I don't think that affected the article too much. --Fragment -Animus- 00:05, September 2, 2013 (UTC) Comments[]Part II: Boston Tea Party[]Details[]For the second part, check out Boston Tea Party, which is almost completely bare. I want you to expand the article so it fully details the Tea Party in an organized manner. Make sure to include all appropriate sections as other event articles do. Check out The Tea Party and Hostile Negotiations for info and images, and Destruction of the Great Chain if you're unsure how to organize an event article and what it entails. Summary[]Expanded the best I could without focusing TOO much on Connor (seemed to be an issue for me). But regardless I think all needed information is there. --Fragment -Animus- 00:05, September 2, 2013 (UTC) Comments[]
All-in-all, a job well done, worthy of a promotion. Your new tasks will be assigned after we have talked. You know where to find me if you have any questions. Stormbeast ♉ The Helpful Place 04:23, September 10, 2013 (UTC) |
Assignment 3: Multiplication[]
Details[]
Your next set of assignments will be multiple works per assignment.
Part I: The Tyranny of King Washington[]
Objectives:
- Revamp The Tyranny of King Washington
- See what you can do with The Infamy
- Expand The Betrayal
- Expand The Redemption
Since you don't have access to the game right now, you may have to rely on other articles for information...and my videos :P
I'll put up your other assignments when I think of them when I believe you're ready for them.

Ya, so due to school and other activities, this new assignment may take a bit longer for me to complete, but I shall hopefully be working on it bit by bit soon. --Fragment -Animus- 03:12, October 4, 2013 (UTC)
- No worries, Frag. Whenever you can get around to it. Stormbeast ♉ The Helpful Place 03:15, October 4, 2013 (UTC)
